> $ boxes > boxes: Alleged system-wide config file '/etc' is a directory

Thank you for the quick response! The new version seems to have made a change that requires a little tweak to the PKGBUILD. As it now stands, boxes does not work. GLOBALCONF is file not a folder. https://github.com/ascii-boxes/boxes/blob/master/README.md The following changes to the PKGBUILD make boxes run correctly: build() { cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver make GLOBALCONF=/usr/share/boxes } package() { cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver install -D -m 644 doc/boxes.1 $pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1/boxes.1 install -D -m 644 boxes-config $pkgdir/usr/share/boxes install -D -m 755 src/boxes $pkgdir/usr/bin/boxes }

it fails to find the config file in /etc since default path is /usr/share/boxes you can just copy the file to your home directory cp /etc/boxes-config ~/.boxes and it runs fine. or edit the PKGBUILD bad line: install -D -m 644 boxes-config $startdir/pkg/etc/boxes-config good line: install -D -m 644 boxes-config $startdir/pkg/usr/share/boxes/boxes-config .. it requires an edit anyways since there is no arch=() line arch=(any) or arch=('i686' 'x86_64') will work just fine.

yep, too bad zombie maintainers cannot be removed from the system.
